Low-carb dieters eat more calories and still lose weight

Calories mean squat. Check out this story:

It doesn't say that calories mean squat at all. Everyone was eating
a low-calorie diet.

What were the volumes of food? Fish, chicken, and salads, as used in
this study, is a fairly healthy diet, and no one is arguing this.
What is contentious is that you can lose weight while eating 4,000 fat
caories a day ( or whatever ).

We also don't know what the "low fat" diet was. Was it high in sugar?
Simple, white, bread? No one thinks those things are healthy.

I'd be a lot more impressed if they checked body composition, and
fitness levels; I'm (personally) interested in losing fat, not weight
per se.
